Thinking back to the affordable eats I tried in Tokyo, the teppanyaki joint near Komagome Station stands out. It’s a spot many friends visit on their way to Rikugi-en Garden or Kyu-Furukawa Gardens. Just a minute’s walk from the station exit, you can’t miss its big Japanese sign.
Tokyo isn’t all about pricey stuff. There are lots of top-rated and authentic Japanese eateries tucked away in little corners and alleys. If you’re craving beef but don’t have time to sit down for a leisurely grill, why not head to Tsukasa Steakhouse?
Opening hours: Monday to Saturday from 11:00 to 23:00 (last order at 22:30), Sunday and holidays from 11:00 to 22:30 (last order at 22:00). They don’t take breaks in between, but it’s best to avoid peak dining times when visiting.
Including photos of the menu ensures you won’t make a mistake even if you don’t understand Japanese. They offer everything from affordable set meals to premium Wagyu beef dishes. We ordered a 960 yen sirloin steak.
Along with the meal comes a side salad with oil vinegar dressing.
This is the fast food teppanyaki I love, emphasizing the simplicity of the meat. It’s all about the solid, unprocessed meat without any added preservatives, ground meat, or marinades.
The texture and chewiness are just perfect in medium rare.
Have you tried Japanese cola? It’s so refreshing!
Its taste and flavor are indeed slightly different from colas elsewhere, but equally enjoyable. Japanese cola from local brands has reduced sweetness but stronger carbonation, which surprisingly pairs really well with meat dishes!
The star of the show is the beloved hamburger steak set! This hamburger steak is made from a blend of Australian Wagyu minced meat, combining both lean and fat portions.
Listening to the sizzle of the meat on the hotplate was so satisfying. Each bite was delightful, and the best part was being able to add extra rice for free. I ended up having two bowls in no time!
